Extreme germ phobia

Chapter 138 Preparing to Evacuate
At midnight, a loud bang like thunder shook the whole city.

The sleeping Ou Yang woke up instantly and sat up suddenly.

He was already familiar with the sound of the explosion. It sounded far away and should not pose a threat to the consulate.

I wanted to continue lying down and sleeping, but after thinking about it, I got up and hurried to the rooftop.

Ma Zhiyuan and Song Lei were already on the rooftop. The latter threw the drone upwards, and the small drone quickly flew high.

Ou Yang looked into the distance. As darkness fell, flames shot up into the sky in the north of the city and dense gunfire could be faintly heard.

Zhu Yiming and Jiang Yuwei arrived at the same time.

I didn't know what happened until the drone landed and I realized that a large-scale explosion had occurred near the police station.

Everyone felt more relaxed after hearing this.

The police station is far away from here!
It's none of your business, just hang it up high.

After a few random discussions, a few people left the rooftop and went to sleep.

Although the city is much quieter now than before, it is normal to have some accidents occasionally.

However, the situation was not as simple as imagined. In the next few days, the situation seemed to have returned to the early stages of the epidemic overnight. Regardless of day or night, conflicts of all sizes continued, and gunshots rang out from morning to night.

Initially it was only in the north of the city, but within a few days it had spread to other areas. Many citizens who had been hiding at home were affected by the escalating conflict and had to leave their homes and flee the city in anger.

The situation gradually got out of control and everyone couldn't help but tense up.

In the end what happened?
Internal strife within the military?

Or is it that the military and the police are fighting?
Just as the negotiations with the US had yielded results, after careful consideration, Ma Zhiyuan left the consulate alone and returned safely that evening.

Everyone's hearts finally settled down, and Song Lei asked with concern, "Old Ma, is everything going well?"

"Not bad. I've been involved in two gunfights and managed to escape both times." Ma Zhiyuan handed over the paper bag in his hand. "This is Lei Yong's medicine."

He said it lightly, but only he knows what is really going on.
"That's great!" Song Lei couldn't stop smiling and immediately handed the inhibitor to Lei Yong.

Ou Yang immediately came forward and asked, "Brother Ma, have you heard any news?"

"Indeed." Ma Zhiyuan's gaze fell on Ou Yang. "I heard that the chaos these past few days is all because of the fight between the Immunity Alliance and the Blood Alliance."

"Immune Alliance?" Several people looked at each other.

The Blood Alliance has the support of the police and is one of the most powerful forces in the city. Where did the Immune Alliance come from and how could it be able to confront the Blood Alliance?
"Yes, it's called the Immunity Alliance, also known as the Immunity Mutual Aid Alliance." Ma Zhiyuan looked at Ou Yang with a smile.

Ou Yang felt uneasy and wondered what kind of look was that?
Ma Zhiyuan continued, “I heard that this organization was spontaneously established by the immunes who escaped from the police station. They specifically target the Blood Alliance and other forces that are unfriendly to the immunes. The conflicts in the past few days were all initiated by this organization.

Hey!
Now everyone understood that this was the immune alliance.

In the epidemic area, immune people have a natural advantage in action, and it is also easy to disguise themselves as infected people. Other forces are either tortured to death by the infection, or hide in safe places and dare not show up.

In Ou Yang's impression, there are also several small groups established by immune people, but not only are they small in scale, but their military strength is also low, and they can only struggle to survive under the oppression of major forces.

Most of these small groups were short-lived. They were either wiped out by the Blood Alliance or swallowed up bit by bit by other forces. Their members basically became blood slaves whose lives were worse than death.

As the old saying goes, where there is oppression, there is resistance. The more harshly the major forces oppress the immune people, the stronger the backlash will be today.

Now not only Ma Zhiyuan, but everyone else's eyes also fell on Ou Yang.

=Ou Yang couldn't help but glare back: "Why are you looking at me?"

Zhu Yiming put his arm around Ou Yang's shoulders and said, "I didn't expect that the Immunity Alliance would be placed with you. Don't you have any ideas?"

"What can I possibly think?" Ou Yang rolled his eyes. "Go tell them I saved them. Let the entire Immunity Alliance call me Grandmaster?"

Zhu Yiming looked wise: "Not impossible!"

"Come on, I'm uniting all the immune people in the world to build a new world!"

Zhu Yiming's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, this is fine!"

"Go to hell!" Ou Yang punched him with just the right amount of force, neither too strong nor too weak.

But after Zhu Yiming was punched, the smile on his face froze, his face turned red, and he squatted down, holding his chest in pain.

Ou Yang just thought he was joking and didn't take it to heart at all.

Ma Zhiyuan noticed something was wrong and hurried up to check.

It was not a big deal to see that there was a purple fist mark on Zhu Yiming's chest, and the skin around it was swollen.

Ou Yang looked at Zhu Yiming, then looked at his own fist, and was stunned: Did I do this?

Zhu Yiming's body was numb, and he finally managed to catch his breath. "Ou, you want to beat me to death?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it!" Ou Yang quickly apologized, but he felt a little aggrieved. "I didn't use much force, you're just too weak!"

Zhu Yiming was extremely sad and angry: "Is this because I can't handle a beating?"

Ma Zhiyuan also found it strange. Ou Yang's punch didn't seem to use much strength, but the punch marks on Zhu Yiming's body were not fake. "Have you practiced before?"

"No!" Ou Yang looked innocent.

Seeing that he didn't seem to be pretending, Ma Zhiyuan waved his hand and said, "Come on, let's arm wrestle!"

Ou Yang also wanted to know what was going on with him, so he and Ma Zhiyuan got into position across the table. Jiang Yuwei said "start", and they both exerted force at the same time.

However, no matter how hard Ma Zhiyuan tried, Ou Yang acted as if nothing had happened. Instead, he waited for Ou Yang to exert force and easily pressed Ma Zhiyuan's arm on the table.

"Oh my god, is that true?" Zhu Yiming looked at Ou Yang, then at the result of the competition, and suddenly felt that it was extremely unreal.

Ma Zhiyuan flexed his wrist and said jokingly, "You're quite strong, kid. You don't even know how to let me, an old man, give you some ground!"

Ou Yang scratched his head: "Hey, I don't know either."

"He wasn't this strong before!" Zhu Yiming confirmed. "Is it because his explosive growth has unleashed his potential?"

Ou Yang's eyes twitched. If Jiang Yuwei hadn't been there, he would have retorted on the spot: What do you mean by explosive seed? My seed is fine, you know?

"Isn't this too fantastic?" Jiang Yuwei thought it was a bit far-fetched.

"It's not surprising," Ma Zhiyuan said. "After recovering from a minor strain, strength can indeed increase due to muscle growth."

"He's grown a bit too much!"

Ou Yang couldn't help but say, "That's because I was the one who pulled it harder."

"A serious strain is impossible to recover from, and there might even be sequelae." Ma Zhiyuan's expression was complicated. "Another possibility is that you possess exceptional athletic talent, but it's simply never been tapped. There's a saying that goes, 'hard work is worthless compared to talent!'"

Zhu Yiming gritted his teeth and said, "It's easy for me to say it, but how good of a talent does it take to reach this level?"

He couldn't help but look him up and down, his eyes full of the urge to slice him: Could it be that he is a rare martial arts genius that only appears once in a century?

Ou Yang was startled, then immediately put on a smug look and deliberately made a joke: "That's because I'm extraordinary, different, and handsome..." "Stop, stop, stop!" Zhu Yiming quickly stopped him, "I told you you were fat and you're out of breath!"

Ou Yang smiled so hard that his teeth couldn't be seen: "The facts are all there, you can envy them all you want!"

"Stop talking nonsense. I will remember you now!" Zhu Yiming pointed at the fist mark and said harshly.

Ou Yang stopped smiling immediately: "Hey, we are all grown men, don't be so stingy."

"Go to hell, I'm just petty!"

"Alright, alright, stop messing around." Ma Zhiyuan stopped him, "Ouyang, try running again!"

There is no runway in the consulate, but the length of the office building is exactly 70 meters.

Ouyang still had some common sense and did a few warm-up exercises to get ready at the starting line.

Ma Zhiyuan yelled, "Run!" and started counting.

Ou Yang gave it his all, running from one end to the other like flying, and then ran to Ma Zhiyuan, panting heavily: "How long?"

Ma Zhiyuan was astonished: "7 seconds."

"Oh my god!" Zhu Yiming was shocked. "One hundred meters in less than eleven seconds? Ou Yang, you used to practice sprinting, right?"

"Don't make a fuss. I haven't practiced any running."

"Have you ever run a 100-meter race before? What was your result?" Zhu Yiming kept asking.

Ou Yang spoke frankly: "I forgot, it's not going anywhere soon anyway...Brother Ma, is there a timing error?"

He is not a person with special athletic talent. From childhood to adulthood, his sports performance has always been in the middle and lower levels. 7 meters in just over seconds?
That’s too exaggerated, 17 seconds is about right.

"Try again!" said Ma Zhiyuan.

Ou Yang ran again, 7 seconds.

Run again, 7 seconds.

If it’s a mistake once, can it be a mistake every time?
Now even he himself lacks confidence. Could it be that the setbacks in the first half of his life were all because he was too inactive and didn't work hard enough?
Zhu Yiming and Jiang Yuwei looked at Ou Yang as if he were a monster.

It's not that I'm afraid or anything, I just think this guy is too perverted and not like a human being.

Zhu Yiming immediately pinched Ou Yang's arm and said, "You're not an alien in disguise, are you? Take off your skin quickly so I can see what an alien looks like!"

"Go away, go squat wherever it's cool!" Ou Yang kept driving him away. "Why didn't I realize you were such a chatterbox before?"

"Hey, that's because you don't know me well enough!" Zhu Yiming was quite complacent.

If you’re doing live streaming, how can you not be good at talking?
Ou Yang was extremely disgusted: "You are a grown man, why should I understand you!"

Zhu Yiming didn't say anything, his eyes moved back and forth between Ou Yang and Jiang Yuwei, and he smiled in a particularly nasty way.

Jiang Yuwei glared at him: "You two are teasing me, don't take me with you."

Zhu Yiming stopped smiling immediately.

Ma Zhiyuan stopped the attack in time and did a simple test of his reaction speed.

It was found that not only did Ou Yang make great progress in strength and speed, his reaction speed was also much faster than that of ordinary people. The key was that his body shape did not change at all, and he still looked ordinary.

Zhu Yiming is filled with envy and hatred. Everyone else is immune, so why are you the only one showing off? Who the hell can he go to for justice?
"Well, how about letting me inhale a few spores and try self-hypnosis?"

Jiang Yuwei was very tempted and even had the urge to try it.

"Don't mess around," Ma Zhiyuan quickly stopped him. "Don't let your potential be unleashed, and instead end up with injuries. Look at all the athletes out there, who doesn't have a bunch of problems?"

Zhu Yiming thought it was true. He really wanted to be different, but it was not worth it if it came at the cost of his health.

Ma Zhiyuan warned again with concern: "Just keep this to yourself, don't mention it to anyone else."

He can become stronger by absorbing spores. This guy is really unique.

He originally knew that there was something special about Ou Yang, but he didn't expect that the specialness was here.

Looking at the billions of people in the world, this guy may not be the only one, but he is definitely a small minority.

Once the news gets out, who knows how many covetous eyes it will attract.

At this time, Song Lei came back and found that the expressions of several people were not right. He asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

Zhu Yiming immediately showed the fist marks on his body and recounted the incident with exaggeration, leaving Song Lei with a confused look on his face.

Is this true? Why does it feel like a story? Or a fantasy one?

It's not that he is suspicious, but any normal person would have some doubts.

"Let's not talk about him." Ma Zhiyuan changed the subject. "Where's Lei Yong? Did he take the medicine? Why didn't he come out with you?"

"I used it, but he said the efficacy is still uncertain and he doesn't want to come out for the time being."

Ma Zhiyuan sighed: "Okay, then wait a little longer."

In the next few days, the situation became increasingly serious, and more and more citizens fled the city.

In the next few days, Lei Yong continued to isolate himself, and Ma Zhiyuan had to go out for a while every day. Sometimes he would be gone for a whole day, and sometimes he would be gone for half a day.

Every time Ou Yang saw Ma Zhiyuan, he felt that he looked more haggard.

Thanks to his proactive approach, the situation at the consulate became increasingly clear.

The fierce conflict lasted for a whole week, and both the Immune Alliance and the Blood Alliance paid a huge price.

It is said that the reason for the reduction in the intensity of the conflict is that the Immunity Alliance razed the police station to the ground at a huge cost.

That is the Blood Alliance's lair. For the immune people who were once detained in the police station by the Blood Alliance, destroying it is not only of practical significance, but also a landmark event of a turning point.

In terms of battle results, the Immune Alliance suffered heavy losses, but from a strategic point of view, destroying the police station was not only a victory for the Immune Alliance, but also a victory for other small forces that had been oppressed.

For a time, the reputation of the Immune Alliance soared. Not only did a large number of immune and healthy people voluntarily join it, but even many infected people volunteered to join it.

However, the Immune Alliance is not a naive organization, and its attitude towards the infected is surprisingly consistent with that of the hunting organization.

Both organizations are forces that are extremely hostile to infected people, and they hit it off immediately.

By the way, as the scale of infection continues to expand, the hunting organization that once swept the entire city has long ceased to exist, and only a very small number of members still stubbornly hunt down the infected.

Most of them are poor people whose relatives and friends have been killed by the infected.

At the end of August, Lei Yong was finally released from self-isolation after confirming that the inhibitor was effective.

On the same day, Ma Zhiyuan hurried back to the consulate and brought back bad news: "The situation has changed, prepare to evacuate!"
